Frozen Key Lime Pie

Frozen Key Lime Pie is the perfect solution to the summer heat.  Tart and refreshing no bake dessert is the perfect way to cool off.

I am a huge key lime fan. As far as I’m concerned it is the perfect summer dessert.  It’s light and refreshing and a little bit of puckery tartness.  Not too sour, not too sweet, just right.

Key limes are smaller and more yellow in color than a traditional lime. They are also tarter and the zest is more powerful and has a stronger lime aroma.

Ingredients Needed

• Graham Cracker Crumbs
• Butter
• Granulated Sugar

• Sweetened Condensed Milk
• Key Limes, juice and zest
• Key Lime Juice. I prefer Nellie & Joe’s key lime juice.
• Lemon Sorbet or Sherbet
• Green Food Coloring, optional
• Whipping Cream
